Chapter 2
Arriving at my new school, I felt nervous. My left foot is out as I stepped out of the car and walked towards the school’s building, into the main office, to get my class schedule. The woman at the office told me to sit down on the chair next to the window to wait for the vice principal, alone by myself in an empty room full of furniture.
I whispered to myself “Did I do anything wrong?” it echoed, as I did not expect it would.
“No you did not do anything wrong Ms. Ryokushin” said the woman at the office standing near the door holding cookies and a can of soda on a tray.
I was surprise she heard me, she even knows my name and more surprise to me is that she can pronounce my last name right. Most people that encounter with my family’s last name would pronounce it “Riyo-ko-shi-an”
The lady stared at me “oh Ms.… did I pronounce your surname wrong?”
“No, you didn’t…may I ask what is your name ma’am?” she smiled.
“Why…”
Wait maybe she didn’t want to tell me “uhhhmmm”
“…yes, my name is Cathy Reynolds” saying it with a shy voice.
Ms. Reynolds put down the tray of cookies and soda on top of the coffee table “Glad to meet you Ms. Reynolds” I smiled back at her “have some snack while waiting” she’s so nice “thank you” I said.
She dressed professionally with the right attitude, the office ladies at my old school would dress professionally too but they don’t speak professionally to the students only to the adults like their sucking up to them. They are rude to the students but nice to the students that only donates high amount of money to the school. I guessed they memorized their faces.
I scorn with a face.
Ms. Reynolds looked at me “what’s wrong?”
Then I stopped and said “oh nothing” continuingly eating the cookies. I look at Ms. Reynolds with one eye as she sits close to me.
“I thank you, for the snack you brought but would you care to have some as we wait for the vice Principal, Ms. Reynolds?”
“No, not at all thank you for the offer but I don’t like eat sweets much” she gazed for a minute “oh! Mrs. Windely, this is Ms. Ryokushin, Angelina Natsuki” then she stood up and walked towards her.
From the looks of it, it looks like Mrs. Windely is the vice principal. I finished chewing the cookies and drank some of the soda so I could talk.
Mrs. Windely walked up to me along with Ms. Reynolds.
“Ah! Your Ms. Ryokushin, nice to meet you I am the vice principal of this school my name is Mrs. Windely” the vice principal’s smile is as wide as forehead but I wouldn’t dare tell her that. Then she gave me my schedule containing my classroom numbers and teachers.
Mrs. Windely toured me around the school. It felt like hours had passed… but 10 minutes had just flown away. My face was numb from smiling nonstop at her. Mrs. Windely kept taking like a mocking bird but the words went through my ears and out. Sometimes I hate forcing my self to smile but it is a habit so I cannot help it. Our next destination was the hallway. Mrs. Vice principle and I kept walks forward in that hallway. I could see student inside the classrooms because of the windows parallel with each other as the hallway seats between them.
While walking, my eyes wondered around looking for something interesting to see but there was nothing. “Ms. Angelina can you please wait here for a moment”
I replied, “Yes, I will” wondering why I should wait. Then she went inside room 72, I could see the students from that room looking bored and unlikely alive at all. A boy suddenly just caught my attention out of the entire student in that room. His big textbook is standing in front of him on top of his desk while he sleeps with his earphones on, on his ears. The teacher and the Vice Principal then walked towards the boys direction and the teacher soon yelled out “…RYAN WAKE UP!” he jumped out of his seat and fell on the floor. The teacher then took him outside the classroom and told him “Wait here young man” now I could see him closer; the boy turned towards me and smiled with a grin along side it. When I smiled back, he frowned.
“I am sorry Mrs. Windely about my rude student” as the teacher cried out.
Mrs. Windely sigh “Its okay some kids these days are just like that, so its not really a problem.” suddenly the vice principle turned to me and placed her hand on my shoulder. “This is Ms. Ryokushin, she is the new transfer student and will be attending your first and third period class for now on” I was so surprise to how she quickly change the subject.
“What?!?! She‘s the new transfer student” yelled the whole student body in room 72, then they started whispering. The teacher came back to the classroom and shush, the students by making them read their textbook.
I am nervous as it is entering the classroom, also thinking of a way to show my character that will lead them to a good perspective of me when I introduce myself.
“Well I will be leaving now Ms. Kensington, please take care of your self,” said Mrs. Windely “Bye now” before I knew, I couldn’t see her anymore while I enter the classroom looking down at my feet.
Suddenly the teacher announces “Class I would like you all to meet a new student” I glance at the students “She will be attending this class from now on so please welcome her” then an awkward silent arose.
“Ms… Would you please introduce your self now?” I took a deep breath “Certainly Ms. Kensington…”
I announce “my name is Angelina Natsuki Ryokushin but you can call me Angelina or Angel for short and its nice meeting you all I hope to get along with everyone” I smiled again.
“Very well said Ms. Angelina, now then your seat will be next to the empty seat near the window at the right” I looked and saw the seat.
“Mr. Osment please come back in the classroom and show Ms. Angelina her seat” the guy that got in trouble, the one who looked at me weirdly after I smiled at…came inside. “Hey new girl follow me to your seat, it is next to mine anyway” he showed me to my seat like a gentlemen but rude at the same time. The teacher sigh, then I said “Thank you, Mr…?” I sat down on my chair.
I pause “You can call me Ryan new girl” his rude mouth was already bothering me “Thanks again but like what I said you can call me Angelina or Angel for short” then I drop my backpack on the floor as he looked at me smiling.
His dark brown shaggy hairstyle with soft looking elegant skin made him look cool, while wearing his glasses made him look smart and like a gentlemen to me but base on his attitude what I can really see right now is that he has a very smart mouth. It is a demon in disguise, with no one not knowing what its true form is.
